ChapelHill27517 Posted May 30, 2007 Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 Seeking assistance for a 3* or 4* hotel in downtown Philly for a family vacation (only need 1 room). Dates are check-in Saturday, June 9, and checkout Tuesday, June 12th. Have bid and rebid up to $125 so far with no luck. Even put in for the 2.5* Courtyard at $125, but was rejected. Do you think the Saturday night is hurting the bid? Any other advice?Would probably be willing to go up to $140 or $150 eventually, since even the cheapest hotwire 3* is at $169/night.Thank you Link to comment
thereuare Posted May 30, 2007 Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 Welcome to BetterBidding!Just to confirm before moving further with this... you are aware that priceline only guarantees double occupancy? (asking since you mention a family vacation but only need one room) Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment
ChapelHill27517 Posted May 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 Our family consists of two sons under 10 who will be in the room with us. We have booked rooms through Priceline before and have not had any issues in the past. Link to comment
